SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Purpose of Program: Title III of Division D
of the Further Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2024 authorizes funding
for CFCP. The funds will support identified organizations throughout
the country to conduct community project activities. The list of
identified organizations may be found in Book II of the March 22, 2024
issue of the Congressional Record of the House of Representatives.
Subgrant Authorization: The Department's regulations in 34 CFR
75.708(a) prohibit subgranting, in the absence of statutory authority,
unless authorized by a notice in the Federal Register. The Department
has determined that to effectively conduct some of the Congressionally
Funded Community Projects and meet the purposes of the program,
subgrants may be appropriate and necessary. Accordingly, through this
notice, we authorize the fiscal year 2024 CFCP grantees to make
subgrants on the terms outlined in this notice.
Under 34 CFR 75.708(b), if the grantee uses this subgranting
authority, the grantee has the authority to award subgrants only to
eligible entities, and the subgrants must be used only to directly
carry out project activities described in the grantee's approved
application and be consistent with the purpose of the program, which is
described in the Further Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2024. CFCP
grantees may make subgrants to the following eligible entities: a local
educational agency, an educational service agency, an institution of
higher education, or a nonprofit organization as defined in 34 CFR
77.1.
Further, under 34 CFR 75.708(d), grantees must ensure that (1)
subgrants are awarded on the basis of the approved budget that is
consistent with the grantee's approved application and all applicable
Federal statutory, regulatory, and other requirements; (2) every
subgrant includes all conditions required by Federal statutes and
Executive orders and their implementing regulations; and (3)
subgrantees are aware of the requirements of Federal statutes and
regulations, including the Federal anti-discrimination laws listed in
34 CFR 75.500, enforced by the Department. Additionally, as is true
with any expenditures incurred under the Department's grant programs,
CFCP expenditures must satisfy the Federal cost principles in 2 CFR
part 200, subpart E. Therefore, any subgrant and subgrantee
expenditures must comply with the Federal cost principles, and
grantees, as pass-through entities, must comply with the procedures for
making subawards described in 2 CFR 200.332.
Note: This notice does not solicit applications.
Program Authority: Title III of Division D of the Further
Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2024 (Pub. L. 118-47).
